Subject:

1832 – 1 August 1864
PID: MW3G-X63
Source to study as possible match for Seth Farnsworth (but has big discrepancies, if relative).
This record could be him--but his birth place is wrong. Also, he's living in Hillsdale, Michigan, not Iowa; on the other hand, if he did live in Hillsdale for a time, that might account for him and McDougall being friends... They might have known each other before the war.
